Good open communication

Michael was brought in by our original real estate agent to market our house. What a happy accident! We absolutely love Michael and the way he works. He is honest, communicative and realistic. He also went above and beyond to help us find a house to buy once ours had sold. Throughout the whole process he has kept us in the loop and has been super responsive. We would use Michael again in a heartbeat we highly recommend.

We had an awesome experience working with Michael. Right from the start, he was incredibly professional, hardworking, and on top of every little detail. He gave us great, practical advice on how to stage and declutter the house to make sure it looked its absolute best for buyers. Communication was spot on throughout the whole campaign. After every single open home weekend, he’d jump on the phone to give us regular updates and walk us through the viewer stats. He's genuinely trustworthy and gave us straight-up, honest advice about the market and what to expect. When it came to auction day, he kept us completely in the loop, but what really blew us away was his dedication at the very end. He was up working and in contact with us until 10:30 PM, grinding to negotiate with the buyer and get the deal over the line. Michael also helped us buy our next place after the sale; if he hadn’t gotten our deal over the line so quickly and unconditionally, we would've missed out on buying our dream home the very next week.

We needed to sell fast. It was April/May 2026, the market was flat, and we'd already had an offer accepted on our next place — no time to wait for the "right buyer" to wander in. Cheryl's first move was pragmatism. The house had a CV of $3.56m, but rather than anchor to that number and hope, she talked us through the market realistically and helped us land on a floor of $3m — a number we could actually sell at, not one we wished we could. That distinction mattered more than anything else. From there she pushed for a proper campaign, not a quiet listing. We moved out so the house could be cleaned and staged, invested in a high-end photo package, and put real weight behind marketing on Trade Me and realestate.co.nz. She brought her own network of stagers, decorators, cleaners and photographers, so presenting the house at its best was her job, not ours. She arrived early to every open home — clearing leaves, heating on, lighting right — and followed up after every viewing with buyer feedback. Nothing was too hard. The response spoke for itself: over 35,000 website views, 88 viewings, four building inspections. Four weeks after listing, we went to auction with five registered bidders and a reserve of $3.2m — in a market where comparable properties were struggling for traction. The house sold under the hammer for $3.35m — over 10% above our $3m floor. Selling at auction at all, in that market, was an outcome in itself. Advice to other sellers: when Cheryl tells you something about pricing or strategy, listen. You wouldn't do your own dentistry because you think you know better — this isn't the place to overrule a professional either. Whether you're a first-home seller, under time pressure like we were, or moving a high-value property — Cheryl is who you want in your corner. Unqualified recommendation.

We purchased our family home through Cheryl. She went above and beyond helping us with due diligence and assisting with settlement. Cheryl is a great negotiator and agent and was always very friendly happy and helpful.

As first time buyers, we were really grateful to have had Renee Oliver. We couldn't have asked for a better experience working with her. From the initial viewing to the settlement day, Renee was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and responsive. She kept us updated at every stage and handled all the negotiations with great skill. We felt very supported throughout the entire process and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell. Thank you Renee.

We have found Renee to be warm, approachable, knowledgeable, aware, professional, and responsive; everything we would want in an agent. If we were to go into this process again in her region we would have no hesitation in giving Renee a call.

Renee has been fantastic to work with throughout the Vines Estate development. She's incredibly hardworking, communicates clearly and consistently, and always keeps us updated every step of the way. Her professionalism, responsiveness, and dedication to achieving the best outcome make her a real asset. We highly recommend working with Renee.
